Re: What wreck is this?
I had to zoom out a little to see Basswood Island...My map shows three wrecks in that vicinity. 

The Fedora, a propeller driven ship that burned.  Located 1 mile north of Red Cliff. (9-1901, L282', 1,848 t,) No Cargo.  Partly above water.  (Could Be!)

The Cormorant, a propeller driven ship took fire off North side of Basswood Island, it was beached then raised and towed to Bayfield where it was stripped of usable components then abandoned in Red Cliff Bay close to Ottawa.  (10-1907, L 218', 877 gt.)

The Ottawa, a wrecking tug burned at achor in the north end of Red cliff Bay.  (11-1909, L 151', 420t, Depth 25')
